The Gold Cup final took place in England amidst heavy rain, with the bad weather even stopping the match for a few minutes in the second chukka. However, this did not overshadow the grand finale of the Gold Cup, which brings the English polo season to a close.

This cup, which is part of the major tournaments held on English soil, is organised by Cowdray Park Polo Club, a renowned club located in Midhurst, which has managed to position this event as one of the three Grand Slams of Polo, along with the Palermo Open and the US Open. This year, the event was already full of excitement as the previous edition in 2020 had to be played behind closed doors due to Covid-19. 

With all of the above, Thai Polo and UAE did their part to lift the trophy in an edition that will be remembered for the great match that both teams had, but as in every game, there is only one winner, and this time luck was on the side of Thai Polo, who after a great match managed to show more determination over the great UAE Polo Team, to win with a score of 9 to 7 taking home one of the most important trophies of the old continent.

The Thai Polo team was made up of the two young brothers Ned and Louis Hine, as well as Nicolas Pieres and James Harper, thus closing the quota of experienced players, where perhaps James Harper is today the best British player. The Gold Cup for the British Open had a final worthy of its history and prestige, with two teams that played a great game. Moreover, this victory is a well-deserved award for Thai Polo, reflecting the continued and unstoppable rise in the careers of the Ned and Louis Hine brothers, who have shown that even at a young age they are up to the challenge of the big high goal tournaments.

As a brand, we are more than honoured to have accompanied this teenage duo in their passage through the Gold Cup For The British Open and reaffirms our commitment to accompany all polo players in their different moments as players, from their daily training, until the day they stand at the top of the podium. At Krono Polo we continue to create partnerships with each player, to enhance each of their skills and qualities, but above all to ensure their integrity on the field in what is one of the most exciting sports there is.

On behalf of Krono Polo, congratulations to Thai Polo for closing the season on a high note and delighting us with their game.
